Across from Court Square Park in Long Island City, Queens stands 8 Court Square, a residential rental building designed by Hill West Architects with interior design by Whitehall Interiors.

8 Court Square uses metal and brick to maintain a classic design, inspired by the industrial heritage and transit infrastructure that defines the neighborhood. The building base utilizes a recessed brick detail at the sills and piers, taking advantage of natural light and shadow to create bold frames around the windows.

By embracing the site geometry, Hill West was able to create a unique, triangular balcony and terrace corner above Thomson Avenue. The building is deferential to the design of the Landmarked buildings in the area, including the Long Island City Court House. Design features of the Long Island City Courthouse inform the pattern on the screened metal at the building base concealing mechanical louvers.

With nearly 14,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenities designed by Whitehall Interiors, 8 Court Square provides ample opportunities for residents to relax, stay connected to the office, and enjoy the company of friends and neighbors.

With a double-height, dedicated amenity floor, and two expansive outdoor spaces, 8 Court Square brings the exclusivity of boutique-scale living together with a lifestyle typically available only in larger buildings.

We collaborate with our affiliated interiors firm, Whitehall to create holistic buildings that are as thoughtfully designed on the interior as they are on the exterior.
